'She Started It' Premiere

The D.C. premiere of the documentary film She Started It, a movie to inspire the next generation of women entrepreneurs. Hear from the filmmakers, Nora Poggi, Insiyah Saeed, and others.

Through intimate, action-driven storytelling, SHE STARTED IT explores the cultural roots of female underrepresentation in entrepreneurship—including pervasive self-doubt, fear of failure, and risk aversion among young women. It exposes, too, the structural realities women face as they become entrepreneurs, including lack of female role models and investors, and the persistent dearth of venture capital funding made available to women-led companies.
